    Hi. I wish to do a PLC course and it asks for the following:

    ''Students will be expected to have passed at least 5 ordinary Leaving Certificate subjects with a C3 grade or higher in Mathematics and a D3 grade or higher in English; or Leaving Certificate Applied Examinations (Distinction Level) or equivalent.''

    I do:

    English (HL)
    Irish (FL)
    French (OL)
    Business (OL)
    Chemistry (OL)
    Biology (HL)
    Maths (OL)

    However I keep failing maths and wish to do Foundation. Will I be able to get in?

    It's looking for at least a C3 grade in Ordinary Level, so Foundation Level, even an A would not be enough.
    There must be a certain amount of Maths in the course that they specify people need at least that level.

    I wouldn't let that stop you from applying.
    You never know what might happen in the exam. If there is an interview, you could stress how you would be willing to do extra Maths classes etc..
